Smoothie Bowls

After recently overindulging, I've been back on smoothie bowls. One new combination is this.

In a food processor, blend:
  • sweet potato cubes - steamed then frozen
  • cauliflower pieces - steamed then frozen
  • banana pieces - frozen
  • fresh papaya pieces
  • coconut milk
  • 1 T agave
  • 1 t goji berry powder
  • 1 t hemp seeds
Top with (R-L):
  • fresh banana
  • fresh papaya
  • homemade granola
  • chia seeds
  • wheat germ
Even better was this smoothie bowl, made following a recipe posted on Instagram. It was such an interesting flavor combination with mint.

 In a food processor, blend:
  • frozen banana pieces
  • half of an avocado
  • handful of fresh spinach
  • fresh mint leaves
  • almond milk
  • cacao nibs
Top with (R-L):
  • chia seeds
  • homemade granola
  • walnuts
  • flax seed meal
  • and a few more cacao nibs
It was sweet and tasted like mint chocolate!

Below is a tropical bowl with papaya, mango, coconut and bananas.

And this bowl was a pure chocolate delight with cacao powder, cacao nibs, along with peanuts... in the smoothie! I think you're getting the picture! 

I'm happily hooked - healthy eating, and maintaining weight loss - and still coming up with new combinations. And it doesn't hurt a bit that I love the color combos in my favorite Fiestaware. Linda

  1. They sold these in many places in Berlin, but it looks like you should open up your own shop!

  2. I'm assuming these are for breakfast or lunch?? You don't eat these 3 times a day do you!! Yikes!

  3. Way to go Linda! I've been having smoothie drinks for lunch with fruit and spinach but haven't gone to the degree you do with these bowls. Not sure I would like all the ingredients you use but someday maybe I'll try my own version.
